I agree with this. It would depend on the type of assistance that is needed and the severity of the issues regarding the special needs child.

Expensive equipment could make a huge difference in being able to hear, speak, or mobility. Many parents of special needs children are just trying to help their children achieve what most typical children have naturally without assistance.

Everyone needs emotional support when going through a difficult time. Thanks to the internet people can connect with other people that are going though the same things they are without even having to leave their home.

As far as care assistance goes, having a child with special needs can take a physical and mental toll on someone. Parents of children that are typical will at some point get a rest from caring for their children. The children will grow onto adults and one day take care of themselves. When you have a child with special needs, the future mat be uncertain. Your life may forever be devoted to caring for your child.
